Curated Panel: International Collaboration – Success Comes With a Global Perspective.
summary
Panelists argue that global collaboration is now practical and necessary: teams scale from 3–5 indie developers to a 65-person studio, with larger shops once hitting 180 and exits still happening (successful exit 2022). Examples: licensing international IPs and teaching brands mobile AB testing and App Store optimization; running servers across time zones for 24/7 uptime; using regional partners to cut costs and add capacity; exploring GPU-as-a-service and web3 for real digital-ownership retention. Specialization and a tight core team prove decisive.
